We study measures, finitely additive measures, regular measures, and $\sigma$-additive measures that can attain even infinite values on the quantum logic of a Hilbert space. We show when particular classes of non-negative measures can be…

In this work we review and derive some elementary properties of the discrete renewal sequences based on a positive, finite and integer-valued random variable. Our results consider these sequences as dependent on the probability masses of…

Measurable sets are defined as those locally approximable, in a certain sense, by sets in the given algebra (or ring). A corresponding measure extension theorem is proved. It is also shown that a set is locally approximable in the mentioned…

Let $\mathbb{P}$ be the complete metric space consisting of positive invertible operators on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space with the Thompson metric. We introduce the notion of operator means of probability measures on $\mathbb{P}$,…

An infinite sequence $\alpha$ over an alphabet $\Sigma$ is $\mu$-distributed w.r.t. a probability map $\mu$ if, for every finite string $w$, the limiting frequency of $w$ in $\alpha$ exists and equals $\mu(w)$. %We raise the question of how…

In this paper we give an improved upper bound, as compared to the one given in [3] for the number of extreme points of the convex set of all G-invariant probability measures on X*Y with given marginals of full support.

We consider impulsive dynamical systems defined on compact metric spaces and their respective impulsive semiflows. We establish sufficient conditions for the existence of probability measures which are invariant by such impulsive semiflows.…

We show that all finite powers of a Hausdorff space X do not contain uncountable weakly separated subspaces iff there is a c.c.c poset P such that 1_P forces that ``X is a countable union of 0-dimensional subspaces of countable weight.'' We…

For the Dirichlet series of the form $\displaystyle F(z,\omega)=\sum\nolimits_{k=0}^{+\infty} f_k(\omega)e^{z\lambda_k(\omega)} $ $ (z\in\mathbb{C},$ $\omega\in\Omega)$ with pairwise independent real exponents $(\lambda_k(\omega))$ on…

The asymptotic expansion of the distribution of the gradient test statistic is derived for a composite hypothesis under a sequence of Pitman alternative hypotheses converging to the null hypothesis at rate $n^{-1/2}$, $n$ being the sample…

Building on recent results regarding symmetric probabilistic constructions of countable structures, we provide a method for constructing probability measures, concentrated on certain classes of countably infinite structures, that are…

We consider Gibbs distributions on permutations of a locally finite infinite set $X\subset\mathbb{R}$, where a permutation $\sigma$ of $X$ is assigned (formal) energy $\sum_{x\in X}V(\sigma(x)-x)$. This is motivated by Feynman's path…

Let $M$ be a multimeasure defined on a $\sigma$-algebra and taking values in the family of bounded non-empty subsets of a Banach space $X$. We prove that $M$ admits a control measure whenever $X$ contains no subspace isomorphic to…

Although algorithmic randomness with respect to various non-uniform computable measures is well-studied, little attention has been paid to algorithmic randomness with respect to computable \emph{trivial} measures, where a measure $\mu$ on…

For $\alpha>0$ and $\sigma > 0$, we consider the following probability distribution on $\alpha\mathbb N_0$: $\pi_{\alpha,\sigma} = \exp \big(- \frac{\sigma}{{\alpha}^2}\big) \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n!}…

In this paper, we study discrete spectrum of invariant measures for countable discrete amenable group actions. We show that an invariant measure has discrete spectrum if and only if it has bounded measure complexity. We also prove that,…

A result of Nymann is extended to show that a positive $\sigma$-finite measure with range an interval is determined by its level sets. An example is given of two finite positive measures with range the same finite union of intervals but…

We present a construction of a compact connected space which supports a normal probability measure.

Measures of voting power have been the subject of extensive research since the mid 1940s. More recently, similar measures of relative importance have been studied in other domains that include inconsistent knowledge bases, intensity of…

For continuous maps on a compact manifold M, particularly for those that do not preserve the Lebesgue measure m, we define the observable invariant probability measures as a generalization of the physical measures. We prove that any…
